Behind the mirror
stands a girl I used to know...
She splashes her face
with numbing water...
No one hears a crying heart
sitting in a corner...
I'm the girl, who hides behind a smile every day.
I'm the girl, who has a tough exterior...
We have ridden life's roller coaster
Yet we have always stayed on...
My soul is pleading for escape
Demons scratching at my door...
I am but the rotten core
of an apple, love-bites from falling...
These rusted bars can't hold me in
from the outside world, I am nothing more...
I wanted to cry, summon the emotions to cascade
down my cheeks and sink into the dry soil...
I didn't know feeling empty could be so...
- Morning stirs and mixes milky residue into my...
Depression
You don't think it's real...
I'll say goodnight
and close my eyes...
